The South Pole is contained entirely in the Southern Hemisphere. As well, it is half in the Eastern and half in the Western hemispheres.
When the South Pole is tilted away from the sun, it is winter in the Southern Hemisphere.
No, Polaris would not be overhead if you were at the South Pole. The North Star -- Polaris -- is not visible from the Southern Hemisphere.
Polaris, the North Star, is located near the North Celestial Pole which is visible only from the Northern Hemisphere. In the Southern Hemisphere, there is no bright star close to the South Celestial Pole like Polaris because the South Celestial Pole does not have a similarly positioned bright star. Therefore, observers in the Southern Hemisphere cannot see Polaris due to its location in the sky.
Yes there are. They are the same phenomenon as the Northern Lights. It happens at both the north pole and south pole. The Northern Lights can be seen in much of the northern hemisphere and the Southern Lights in much of the southern hemisphere.
The southern pole star is called Sigma Octantis. It is located very close to the southern celestial pole and serves as a guide for navigation in the Southern Hemisphere, much like Polaris does for the Northern Hemisphere.
The continent nearest to the south pole is Antarctica.In fact the south pole isON Antarctica. The next nearest continent is South America, and the one afterthat is Australia.
Each hemisphere has cold winters and hot summers. This is because the seasons are reversed. E.g: In America (Northern Hemisphere) their Christmas is in winter and is very cold, but in Australia (Southern Hemisphere) their Christmas is in Summer and is very hot. See even though they happen at the same time they have completely different climates - the seasons are just reversed.
The nearest pole to Australia is the South Pole.
It is in the Southern Hemisphere.
The south pole is a single point on the continent of Antarctica in the southern hemisphere.
The South Pole is in the southern hemisphere, so it will be winter there too. In the northern hemisphere it will be summer.
The US is completely in the northern hemisphere. Every place in the northern hemisphere is closer to the north pole than it is to the south pole.
